Living as an overweight woman in her 30's. The challenges that come with it. Everything it takes to lose weight. The good and the bad. Plus living with Multiple Sclerosis while doing it. Which makes it twice as hard!

Still at it !
Wow - I am averaging about one post a month. I guess I will need to pick that up.
I Post,Vlog,Message in so many places it is getting hard to keep track.
I have my girlfriend Trish in my ear saying"so when are you going to start that blog".
I started quite a while ago. I just need to take the time to make it presentable.
OK so where are we...
I am in the middle of week 3 of Weight Watchers.
In the past as soon as I get to about the end of week 2 I notice I am not writing down what I ate. Which means that I am also not counting points.
I am eating and shopping for the same foods. I am also weighing my foods for the most part.
I have this great scale that I have had for a few years now. I love that thing.
As always I am losing weight with WW. I always have but typically like everyone else I want to see huge losses and when those are not seen. I get board and well....I start eating what I want when I want.
I am steadily losing weight. Not huge amounts ! As a matter of fact I am only down 5.5 Lbs in 3 weeks and 1 day. That is almost averaging 2 pounds a week. So I should be happy with that and I am.
This past week I had a few bad meals. I had pizza one night and bar food which consisted of a taco and a cheese enchilada. So I knew going into Wednesdays weigh in it may not look good.
I had actually been thinking of weighing every 2 weeks. My logic was that it would be true fat loss I would be seeing and not water weight which with me can be up to 2 pounds. So come Wednesday I did not weigh. But once again..My girlfriend trish was saying I should weigh.It better to be able to judge if what I am doing is working..I figure if I am eating right and getting in a workout (which other then housework does not exist) I should have a loss. Well today I just said heck with it and got on the scale. I was down .5lb...Nothing to brag about.
Later today about 3 hours later my monthly gift arrived with water weight in tow.. So can I be for sure that it was a true .5 loss..NO ! So I should have waited and weighed next week. At least I did not have a gain.
This time around is so different for me. I truly want to lose this weight. No matter if it takes me 2 years or 6 months. It is even not as hard as I had thought it would be. Coming into this I was addicted to sugar. I am still craving it at times. But a bowl of applesauce or a nectarine does the trick. Unlike the bags of starburst I would eat..Thank god I got out of that habit !
So I am still in ONEderland..On my way to my ultimate goal of 140 and getting closer to fitting into my favorite pair of jeans that I am only about 10-15 pounds from fitting into.
I am so excited to see the changes. One day soon when I start to notice a change I will start to post the now and then pics.
